-  This relatively simple system ought to be the basis for excellent
-  cooperation between PulseAudio and JACK. Unfortunately, it relies on
-  everything being correctly configured for it to work, and Ubuntu
-  have repeatedly failed to get this configuration correct.

   The specific issues known at this time (spring 2013) are:
   <ul>
     <li>a bug in PulseAudio that causes it not to give up the
-      soundcard when JACK asks</li>
-    <li>bad package dependency information that causes a critical
-      package to be missing even when JACK and PulseAudio are
-      installed</li>
-    <li>a bug that causes JACK to freeze up when told to stop, 
-      causing issues with restarting</li>
